EME Startup

Post by VK2BJP »

I am at the initial stage of setting up to try eme on 2m, I would like advice on feeders and antenna's.
Which feeder should I buy, most advice seems to "buy the best feeder you can afford" but which one....will LMR400, LL400, do the job or should I go for LmR 600?
where can I purchase coax off the reel, and fittings that dont have to be crimped.

Which yagi, I've been looking at the G0KSC 11 element LFA, they seem to get good reviews, any comments from anyone who has built and used this antenna?

I've read most of the posts in this forum and other info on eme available on other eme sites, including WSJT's excellant article, I think I have a "beginners" grasp on how it all works,
but any other comments on equipment and setup would be greatly appreciated. 73 Russ
